Description
Summary:There are two fundamental trends observed in HPC (High Performance Computing) server farms that are becoming increasingly worrying. One is that their power consumption is becoming a major concern [1]. Another is that there is an increasing percentage of transistors on the chip that cannot be used simultaneously due to overheating. This is often referred to as dark silicon [2] (Fig. 1).
